Charge the new glow plug igniter for 16 to 24 hours on the first charge. For subsequent charges, charge
it about 12 hours before next use.

NOTE:

If the igniter gets warm or hot during the charge, unplug the igniter from charger immediately. A warm /
hot igniter means the igniter is overcharged. Overcharging can damage the internal battery in the igniter;
thus, shortening its life.
